More Tips & Tricks for the Perfect Hot Chocolate Bombs

Want your Valentine’s Day Mickey hot chocolate bombs to be the best ever? Check out these tips from the pros for creating the perfect hot chocolate bombs this Valentine’s Day.

Use Good Chocolate

Be sure you have good quality chocolate for your Mickey hot chocolate bombs. Chocolate without enough cocoa butter won’t melt properly, so check to be sure the chocolate you choose contains cocoa butter. Look for chocolate that is 65% cocoa or more for the best results as you make your hot chocolate bombs. 

Use Milk Not Water

If you can, use warm milk for melting your finished hot chocolate bombs rather than water. Water works, but milk makes for a much creamier cup of cocoa at the end. About 1 cup of warm milk will yield the best results for these Valentine’s Day Mickey hot chocolate bomb gifts.

Add Mickey Marshmallows and Sprinkles

One of the best things about hot chocolate bombs is the surprises you’ll find inside! These hidden hot cocoa treasures are part of the magic and fun. For these Mickey hot chocolate bombs, choose some fun Mickey shaped marshmallows or sprinkles to make it extra special.
